TEST-2

GENERAL ENGLISH

Question no 41 to 50 contains a comprehension.Read the comprehension carefully and

answer the following questions.

What are the good parts of our civilization ? First and foremost there are order and

safety. If today I have a quarrel with another man, I do not get beaten merely because I

am physically weaker and he can kick me down. I go to law, and the law will decide as

fairly as it can between the two of us. Thus in disputes between man and man right has

taken the place of might. Moreover, the law protects me from robbery and violence.

Nobody may come and break into my house, steal my goods or run off with my children.

Of course, there are burglars, but they are very rare, and the law punishes them

whenever it catches them.It is difficult for us to realize how much this safety means.

Without safety these higher acti-vities of mankind which make up civilization could not

go on. The inventor could not invent, the scientist find out of the artist make beautiful

things. Hence, order and safety, although they are not themselves civilization are things

without which civilization would be impossible. They are as necessary to our civilization

as the air we breathe is to us; and we have grown so used to them that we do not notice

them any more than we notice the air.

Another great achievement of our civilization is that today civilized men are largely free

from the fear of pain. They still fall ill, but illness is no longer the terrible thing it used to

be.Not only do men and women enjoy better health; they live longer than they ever did

before, and they have a much better chance of growing up. Thirdly, our civilization is

more secure than any that have gone before it. This is because it is much more widely

spread. Previous civilizations were specialized and limited, they were like oases in a 

desert.
